Types of Dimensional Signs
DIMENSIONAL LETTERS AND LOGOS
Carved Thru Letters and Logos are when the letters and shapes are cut-out and physically cut away from the material. Adding side or backlighting can create a stunning halo effect, bringing the letters to life at night while maintaining visibility during the day.
FLUSH MOUNT OR RAISED LETTERS
Flush-mounted letters are individually attached directly onto a building's exterior (façade), creating a modern, sleek appearance where the letters seem to float off the wall, unlike signs mounted on a raceway. For illuminated channel letters, the wiring and power components are installed behind the building's wall or façade, with holes drilled through the wall for each letter's electrical elements. This installation method is labor-intensive and requires extensive drilling but offers a high-impact visual result.
Raised letters are three-dimensional characters or graphics that project from a surface using pins, creating depth and a tactile quality, often used for signage to enhance visibility and provide a premium appearance.
ILLUMINATED 3D
Illuminated 3D dimensional letters, often referred to as raised letters, or 3D signs, serve as a powerful marketing tool that can significantly enhance your brand's visibility. Illumination can be achieved through various methods, such as integrated LED lights, backlighting, or LED Neon tubing, each offering a unique aesthetic.
Illuminated 3D dimensional letters are not just signs; they are an investment in your brand's identity. By incorporating these visually striking elements, you can attract more attention and create a strong, memorable impression on protentional customers.
